    You mean the he issue the "SLC" part? I remember them back since 1976 or there bouts. Didn't "wonder woman" drive one in that Lynda Carter series?

    Superlite Coupe - SLC - for sale - Virginia

    Several prominent builders have quoted me 95K for new basic build. Add another 10K for more glamorous interior. Frankly I could not do it for that. But someone can. In the end they are only worth what someone is willing to pay. I know y'all are proud of the cars and the effort and rightful so...

    RCR & Chupacabra?

    Yep the build is pretty interesting, looks quite good technically from this side of the computer that's for sure.

    RCR & Chupacabra?

    Looks like RCR is providing the doors? Home https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHPgP6j4IvmgUkhtGJy9qAQ Not even lambo'ish, it looks LIKE a lambo. You would be plagued with the "kit car knock off" thing everywhere you go I would wager. Looks great in photo shop though but if I had a nickel for...

    Perhaps an updated Pantera GT5 inspired variant like that Ring Brothers one off. Perhaps different.. maybe open top, perhaps like an updated 550 wide body interpretation. Carry on.

    Open Builds Plasma CNC

    And if you don't have CAD and it is a 2D part like a plate or bracket then just use regular Microsoft Visio, draw to scale and save as DXF. Easy peasy. :thumbsup:

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Yep... South Florida has that exact same issue among others, and whats worse... what back roads this is Florida. :thumbsdown: When I was in Scottsdale there are lots of canyons and back roads out to the wide open northern AZ country that was beautiful and sparsely populated. Makes me feel as if...

    Open Builds Plasma CNC

    If I supplied the metal I could get for example, 3/8" steel plate cut for rear axle plates for a motorcycle for about $35, see below. For something like 1/8" I could make 15 mounting tabs for the same price. If your talking aluminum that cuts like butter and is quite cheap. Best to bring in a...

    Open Builds Plasma CNC

    No but I have built a CNC Mill. If you know how to use CAD software and generate tool paths then it's probably ok, but if not you'll be swamped with learning. Although I had a CNC mill and know how to use 2D and 3D cad and can generate tool paths with BocCab Pro, in general it was still easier...

    I just went and checked Panoz site to see if after 10+ years their Esperante ever shed that kit car look. No so much no. Looks like a late model Thunderbird with a body kitmated with a Shelby. They have a bat mobile-ish GTR1 too. I am certain some folks think those are good looking models...

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Bill, is this before you set the ride height to street height or is this after the street height? I assumed raising the car was an option of course but then I was afraid of wheel gap issues which I admit it an aesthetic issue only. I myself are one of the an unfortunate types who want to drive...

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Right on yes, lift for the front is in my list, was unsure of the rear but I suspect the front is all that is needed. Thanks all.

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Actually Larry yes, I have an RV gate to back yard and contemplated putting a dedicated garage there which would then mean a new circular drive with offshoot to the RV gate all regraded to accommodate what ever. Of course with a new house in my case I cant take out 10-15 years of equity so it...

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Ohh perfect so you can navigate up to 9, call it 8 to be safe. Much appreciated. Running out of excuses to not buy one.:laugh: Wait, where in Florida are you Jack, I just moved to Boca Raton.

    SL-C Approach angle?

    Your probably right about speed bumps and the lot, driveway is probably not an issue. This chart shows 6 degrees incline is 10.5% grade. If I had the overhang from contact patch I could visualize it in CAD, or even Visio as my stuff is still packed. Slope - Degree, Gradient and Grade Converter...

    SL-C Approach angle?

    What is the approach angle that a regular height SL-C and navigate and what is with with the front end lift option. The front overhang has me wondering as my driveway in my new house here in Florida has a 6 degree angle to keep the flood waters out. This has me concerned. One sure would hate to...
